Tran Duy Duc, from the Tra Quang area of Phu My commune, said more than 30,368 square metres of his family’s agricultural land in My Trinh commune (now Phu My Tay commune) had been expropriated for the construction of a training ground for the Phu My District Military Command.
He requested compensation or a land exchange to continue farming, and called for full compensation for investments made on the remaining land rather than receiving only 30% of the agricultural land value as support.

Tran Thi Ha, a resident of Area 6, Quy Nhon ward, complained about the compensation rate for eight square metres of residential land acquired for a technical infrastructure project in Area 10 of the former Hai Cang ward. She said the compensation of 80 million dong (about USD 3,200) was too low and that the remaining land was insufficient for her family of six, requesting allocation of a resettlement plot.
Nguyen Thanh Luan, from Area 53, Quy Nhon ward, said his family was not allocated a resettlement plot during an urban renovation project in Residential Group 48, Area 9A of Dong Da ward (now Quy Nhon ward). He argued that the compensation and support package of more than 17.2 million dong (about USD 690) was inadequate to secure stable housing.
Concluding the dialogue, Chairman Pham Anh Tuan instructed relevant agencies to review land acquisition procedures in Mr Duc’s case and propose solutions in line with legal regulations. For Ms Ha’s petition, he asked authorities to resolve the issue in a reasonable and humane manner, safeguarding the citizen’s legitimate rights and interests.
Regarding Mr Luan’s complaint, Chairman Tuan agreed, based on field verification, to consider allocating one residential plot with land-use fees applied, and ordered relevant units to review the land fund and prepare a specific plan.
He also directed departments and localities to complete documentation promptly and propose lawful solutions to protect citizens’ legitimate interests, contributing to social stability in the province.
